A Berkeley Lab Checkpoint/Restart (BLCR) Admin-
istrator’s Guide
This guide (extract from the doc directory of the BLCR tarball) describes how
to install, configure, and maintain Berkeley Lab Checkpoint/Restart (BLCR) for
Linux.
A.1 Installing/Configuring BLCR
To build checkpoint/restart, you need the following files:
• The source code for the configured kernel you are building against.
• linux/version.h (a generated file from the kernel sources).
• either the System.map or the vmlinux file for the kernel you are building
against.
• A copy of the BLCR source (blcr-X.Y.Z.tar.gz: see http://ftg.lbl.gov/checkpoint
for a link to the latest version).
If you run into trouble when following the instructions below, make sure to
check both our FAQ (especially the "Build/Install Questions" section), and our
bug database, located at http://mantis.lbl.gov/bugzilla/. Your install problem may
have already been solved!
A.1.1 Configuring BLCR
BLCR builds and installs much like any other autotools-based distribution:
% t a r z x f b l c r −<VERSION> . t a r . gz
% cd b l c r −<VERSION>
% mk dir b u i l d d i r
% cd b u i l d d i r
% . . / c o n f i g u r e [ o p t i o n s ]
% make
% make i n s t a l l
Depending on which kernel you are building against, and where you wish to
put the BLCR libraries, there are a number of options to configure that you need
to consider.
